Captain Kangaroo Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 The Zips presently have scholarship offers to 6 HS Juniors in the Akron/Canton area:John Adams - BuchtelLarry Dawson - Akron NorthDevoe Torrence - Canton SouthThe other three are top secret at this time. Quote
ZachTheZip Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 Good. Lets get those local guys. Stick by them through the whole recruiting process. Get them in the Zips mindset now. We lose too many local kids to OSU and other "big-name" schools. I bet UA would get more media coverage if they had more players from the Akron area. Quote
timmyboy Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 awsome, im glad to see them offering local kids, like i stated before. there is alot of talented kids playing in akron public schools...lets get and keep them here lol. 1 more guy i have seen play and think they should offer if QB/LB Chad Keppler from akron ellet. he is 6'4 and 200 lbs and gaining. he has been working with a speed coach to get his 40 time down. by the time the season comes around im thinkin he will be around 215-220. he has been looked at by pitt, conneticut, illonois and a few others. he went to a pitt game and was on the sideline during the pitt louiville game an said he liked it. but im sure he is still open to his choices.

Blue & Gold Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 Captain, why exactly would some jr recruits be top secret? What gives? Quote
timmyboy Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 Hey cap. they also recently offered Dan Mccarthy of Youngstown cardinal Mooney . he already has offers from OSU and Penn State. He would be a HUGE addition if we were able to pull this one. Ive got video on him if ud like to see it. Quote

Ryno aka Menace Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 Devo Torrence older brother is going to Columbus hopefully we can get him. Quote
bobbyake Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 I posted about Larry Dawson a long time ago and I hope he chooses Akron. He's a very talented athlete. Because he was hurt during most of his Junior season, some of the big schools might not know about him yet. Quote
